Chains for a Swing

Each of the four brass chains comprise several ornate links of cast brass intercepted by globular boxes having perforations. The upper ends of the chains were attached to hooks in the ceiling while the lower ends were connected to brass or iron rings attached to a rectangular wooden plank of the swing in its four corners.
The most remarkable feature of the chains is that in the perforated globular containers perfume dipped cotton or incense on burning coal was placed. As the swing moved, the room got filled with scented air.
